Chapters:

The chimeras were closing in. Then paused. They advanced slowly,
unsure of what to do. At first they weren't scared-what could be
so dangerous about a girl with a stick?-but then they saw the man
behind her. Recognized him. Saw the look in his eyes. The
chimeras hesitated, suspicious of the man, fearful even. Why is
he here? Wasn't he dead?

He turned, facing the girl. Pointed to her sword to indicate
his intentions. The girl looked at him. For a moment he thought
she would do as he wants, and hands over the sword. Then the girl
shooked her head and managed a shaky smiled.

"No, sire. You had just woke up. You are in no condition to
fight. I know of your reputation as the Kra Ragash,
sire, but right now, you are weak. Pardon me for saying that,
sire, but we both know its the tr-" she stopped short as he
snatched the sword away.

"Sire! Please!"

He looked at her, wanting to speak but unable to. He stared into
her eyes for a few seconds and saw that she really
wanted him to live. More than that, her eyes shows that he
had to live. They were practically screaming out for him
to run. But in her eyes, he also saw something else. A glimmer of
hope. Sure, the girl wanted him to live, but that does not mean
she wants to die. He knew, and she also knew, that if he ran and
left her, she wouldn't stand a chance against the chimeras.But if
he stayed, she might have a chance of survival. If he
was so strong, having the reputation of the Kra
Ragash(whatever that means), could he not just protect a
girl?

Ignoring Eliza's cries, he turned to face the chimeras. He
moved closer. Suprisingly, the chimeras, backed away. He continue
to advanced. The chimeras backed away, making growling sounds,
like they were talking. He stopped, waiting for them. Eventually,
one of the chimera advanced to wards him, but stopped about not
far away from his position. To his suprise, the chimera began to
speak.

"Kioi khar dor mas, Kra Ragash?"

The chimera spoke with a low, growling voice.

He was shocked that he was able to understand the chimera's
words. The chimera had asked,"What do you want, Kra Ragash?"

He remained silent, not only because he does not know how to
answer the chimera, but also because his throat was so dry he
could not speak.

The chimera repeated it's question.

He did not answer.

The chimera growled. "Tor uo."

That means "Very well". He became aware that the chimera plan to
attack.
